Any interest in a gun contest Next Year???

I just want to bump this and make sure there is enough interest....if so, I have been given the go to run this

All manner of guns qualify (as long as they are legal for your state regs)
Only members of the forum can play
All rules and qualifications will mimic the bowhunting contest (sans the weapons, of course)

 

In.........................

 

This will be my first year hunting gun season, I would do it.

 

I'm in as well

I will ask you here since you did not reply on the other thread....why?

 

I'll play, but I usually don't even shoot during the gun season.

 

Count me in

 

First year with new land, wouldn't mind taking something with the berg!

 

doing this contest along with the archery one will have you choosing one or the other. most states allow one buck to be harvested and in the case you shoot it with a gun to post to the water cooler you would be hurting your team on the actual bowhunting site for the archery contest.

 

So much untruth in your statement ....

 

There is not ONE person on this site that will pass their target buck with a bow so they can score for the gun contest

not true

See above

 

Only allowed one buck here. I could shoot it with a bow or a gun... but just one.

Same here.

Just because your states allows multiple bucks does mean every other state does as well, Tony.

 

im not saying they would pass up the buck, but instead of still archery hunting these same people will opt for a gun and potentially shoot their target buck. in my state that would have just ended my hunt for bucks and hurt my team for the archery contest.

 

Again, I do not believe ANYONE would change the way or the what they hunt for a contest that means nothing ...

 

Combined gun and bow I can only shoot one deer a year here where I'm at in MN.

I'm not so sure. I'd be lucky to sneak within bow range of a 1.5 year old buck here in the mountains. The chances of me being able to pick off a 2.5+ year old buck with my .300 win mag. is much better.

If I pass on a dink buck with my bow, I'll be letting down my team (and we're going for a three-peat) but I'd rather shoot a 2.5 yo or better buck, even if it means using a rifle.

It actually does weigh on my mind.
